Good Morning America!

This is me, after a run enjoying the sound of the birds chirping outside and savoring the chill on my skin from the sweat cooling my body down after a good work out. I've prayed. I've studied my scriptures.  I've responded to important emails and now I'm enjoying each uninterrupted bite of my healthy amlet. 

Normally it takes me all morning to accomish these things with four kids in tow. 

Is this how early morning people feel all the time? 

Sheesh. I think it's time I turn over a new leaf and suck it up and GET OUT OF BED. 

This is a "note to self" type blog. 

But I'm curious, do you think people that get up early all the time have to work at it, or is it a genetic thing?   

This blog sort of stems from an article that caught my eye on changing habits by doing 5 minutes a day of something different. 

That led to another article that had suggestions on how to become an early riser and the benefits of it. I employed one of the suggestions this morning, which was to put my alarm clock across the room so that I have to stand up and walk to turn it off. 

This worked magically this morning. I also had a plan last night that I would wake up and run, so I had an immediate purpose to get out of bed. 

It worked today. We shall see about tomorrow. Ah Ruby is awake and squaking now. Parties over 😉 happy Wednsday.
